Ⅱ.七选五
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
If you think you're a pessimist and there's no hope of ever turning it around,then think again!
According to mental health experts,it is actually very possible to turn into a glass-half-full kind of
person,and here's what you can do to see things in a brighter light.
1 Writing down your ideas of an optimistic tomorrow will make a huge difference when it comes
to your overall attitude to life.You may also want to consider a serious challenge you have in life right
now,and simply sit back and think about all of the possible positive outcomes.
Choose to be optimistic.Life is all about choices.You can choose to spend the entire day reading or
cleaning.You can make the call you've been thinking about for a while or you can put it off for another
day.What's more,you can also choose to be positive or you can choose to simply carry on living as you
are.2 And then carry on that way for the rest of your life.
Extend positiveness to others.Making others feel good about themselves can have lasting positive
effects on your own life.Never forget to admire your family,friends,and colleagues for the good things
which they are doing in their lives,even if they don't directly affect you.3 Recognize your negative
thought patterns.It's fine to acknowledge that bad things in life might happen at any time.4 Yet being
overly negative can seriously ruin your chances of finding happiness in his life.Reframing your awkwardly
negative thoughts into more realistic patterns may be the key to helping you maintain optimism.
Practice gratitude.Spend some time thinking about all of the things you have to be thankful for.
5 You could even choose to keep diaries,where you can put down anything which makes you smile.
If nothing else,take a moment every once in a while to stop,smile and be thankful for the positive things
in life.
A.Imagine a positive future.
B.Form the habit of keeping diaries.
C.Of course,it's also necessary to praise yourself.
D.Ignoring reality isn't the most helpful method either.
E.Being optimistic starts with the decision to be positive.
F.It will often provide you with an instant optimism boost.
G.Take a moment to work out how realistic your thoughts really are.

二、培优提升训练
I.文章大意:本文是一篇说明文,介绍了世界各地几种不同的
庆祝新年的传统。
1.A主旨大意题。根据文章内容,特别是第一段中的“Different
cultures celebrate the beginning of a new year in different ways"
可知,不同的文化以不同的方式庆祝新年,下文就介绍了几种
不同的庆祝新年的传统,故A项正确。
2.C细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Different cultures celebrate
the beginning of a new year in different ways,and at different
times on the calendar.”及第二段的举例可知,世界各地庆祝新
年的时间不同,故C项正确。
3.C细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Other common traditions to
keep away bad luck in a new year include throwing things into
rivers or the ocean”可知,新年那天,人们往河里或海里扔东西
是为了赶走毒运,故C项正确。
4.B细节理解题。根据第四段中的“or saying special things on
the first day of the new year”可知,如果想要在新的一年里避开
霉运,行好运,新年那天,朋友间要彼此讲一些特别的事情,故
B项正确。
文章大意:这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了年轻女孩Monica
Plumb为火灾消防救援中的宠物研发并提供了氧气面罩,这使
得宠物更有可能熬过火灾。
5.B推理判断题。根据第二段中“Once she had made it,she
continued begging donations-using her website and collection
cans,giving speeches,whatever it took.So far,she has supplied
nearly300 fire stations with the pet-saving equipment..”可知,
旦她成功了,她就继续乞求捐款—利用她的网站和募捐罐,
发表演讲,不惜一切代价。到目前为止,她已经为近300个消
防站提供了宠物救助设备。由此可知,Monica Plumb是一个
充满爱和坚定的女孩。故选B项。
6.B细节理解题。根据第三段中“The pets'best chance of living
is receiving oxygen through a specially made mask”可知,宠物最
好的生存机会是通过特制的面罩获得氧气。由此可知,使用
特别设计的宠物面罩可以把氧气成功地输送给动物。故选
B项。
7.C推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“‘That was early in the
awareness curve,'says Best Friends Pet Care's Deb Bennett.
We had to educate and persuade many fire chiefs about the value
of the masks..’”可知,“这是人们对宠物护理的早期认识,”
Best Frien山s宠物护理公司的Deb Bennett说。“我们必须教育
并说服许多消防队长关于这些面具的价值。”由此可知,宠物
面罩的重要性并没有被所有人认识到。故选C项。
8.B词义猜测题。根据第二段中“So far,she has supplied
nearly300 fire stations with the pet-saving equipment.”可知,到
目前为止,她已经为近300个消防站提供了宠物救助设备
再结合最后一段中“Young Monica Plumb,who plans to become
a veterinarian(兽医),had no idea her campaign would go this
24
far.”可知,年轻的Monica Plumb计划成为一名兽医,她没想到
自己的活动会走到这一步。由上文提到她所做的一切可知,
划线词her campaign意为“为消防部门提供宠物面罩”。故选
B项。
Ⅱ.文章大意:这是一篇说明文。向我们介绍了几种帮持悲观态
度的人们进行转变的几种办法。
l.A由上文“here's what you can do to see things in a brighter
lgt”可知,下面要介绍培养积极乐观态度的几种方法。该小
题应该选一个祈使句做小标题,也是本段首句兼主题句。下
"Writing down your ideas of an optimistic tomorrow will make a
huge difference when it comes to your overall attitude to life."(
你关于一个乐观的明天的所有想法写下了…),由此可知,
尤其是“tomorrow”一词与“future”呼应,我们第一步要乐观地
畅想美好未来。A项内容符合语境。故选A项。
2.E根据该空所在第三段小标题“Choose to be optimistic.”可
知,乐观还是消极悲观是一种选择,我们一定要去选择积极乐
观,选择了就做出了一个决定,E选项“Being optimistic starts
wit讪the decision to be positive.”乐观的生活态度开始于一个要
做一个乐观的人的决心。空后下文“And then carry on that way
for the rest of your life.”下定决心之后,就在今后去坚持。E选
项内容符合语境,尤其“decision”和“choose”呼应。故选
E项。
3.C根据上文“Never forget to admire your family,friends,and
colleagues for the good things which they are doing in their lives,
even if they don't directly affect you.”可知,作者建议欣赏赞美
身边家人,朋友,同事,营造积极乐观的大环境。C项“O
course,it's also necessary to praise yourself.”(当然了,赞美自
己也是很必要的。),很好地承接上文,尤其“lso”。故选
C项。
4.D上文“lt's fine to acknowledge that bad things in life might
happen at any time..”承认生活中随时可能会发生不好的事情。
接受这个现实是有好处的。D选项“Ignoring reality isn'tthe
most helpful method,either..”忽略现实不是最好的办法。符合
语境。下文“Yet being overly negative can seriously ruin your
chances of finding happiness in his life.”然而一直持否定消极
态度会严重毁掉你发现幸福的机会。转折含义的副词“yet'"
之前要接受生活中有些不如意,“yet”后说明不能一直消极,
要转换思维方式。故选D项。
5.F由空前“Spend some time thinking about all of the things you
have to be thankful for.”可知,作者建议大家用点时间想一下
所有应该感恩的事物。F选项“It will often provide you with an
instant optimism boost.”(这将经常给你一种乐观的推动力。)
符合上文语境,主语“It”指代前面整个句子。故选F项。
